What is the best way to get to this hotel from Barcelona airport?
Hi dear Gemma,
There are several ways to get the hotel from the airport:
TAXI. About 40€ and 30 minutes. If you want, we can book a private transfer for you. The driver will wait for you in arrivals of the airport showing a sign with your names.
From another side, there is a special bus, service every 10 minutes, it does not work during night. Round trip ticket 10,20€ by person. It stops in Plaza Catalunya, about 500 meters from our doors, most of the way for a narrow street not very comfortable to walk with luggage, so you can take a taxi in Plaza Catalunya, about 6€.
TRAIN and METRO. There is a train (R2) every 30 minutes from terminal 2 to main train station. Once you are there, you can take the metro, green line, L3, until Drassanes and walk 250 meters. Metro ticket, 2’20€ one trip. About 50 minutes.
METRO. L9 Sud (orange) to ZONA Universitaria. Once there, Green line (L3) to Drassanes and walk 250 meters. There is a metro stop in each terminal (A1 in T1, A2 in T2) Special price for metro from the Airport, 4,60€ by person and trip. About 50 minutes.
Hope that helps you.

Taxi
Taxi was quite reasonable
We used a car service because we had a power scooter with us. But a cab would be fine. Be sure they drop you at the correct hotel, there is one almost directly opposite this hotel. The reg cab stand is there. ( Don’t miss the Maritime museum about 4 blocks away! Yellow submarine! Trains and subway work well but takes more time and we are not use to figuring those connections out.
